In this lesson we will learn how to apply different effects to text in PowerPoint.
We have already seen some of the effects that can be used in order to emphasize objects shadow glow
transparency etc. similar options are available for text as well.
We can select the text whether it is in a text box or in a shape and right click on it in the menu that
opens we have to select format text effects once there we can choose whether to add a shadow reflection
glow or 3D format to the selected text in order to provide an example.
I will add a shadow which will be transparent at 80 percent.
I will adjust its blur and distance to three and set the angle to 45 degrees
and we can see that the text within the box is slightly different than before.
It has a somewhat stronger appeal to the eye due to the effects that were added Let's open the format
text effects menu and add a glow effect to the selected text this time will click on glow and set the
glow parameters of our choosing.
This option allows us to highlight the selected text within a few clicks.
We can make text glow in a variety of colors.
In this particular example we'll select a red glow the effect is very strong because we chose a large
glow size.
These are some of the text effects that you can use in PowerPoint.
There are a number of effect combinations which can be applied in order to obtain the desired final
output.
Over time you will build your own custom preferences.
The important thing at this moment is that you know where to find these effects and the way they function.
This will do for now.
Thanks for watching.
